It's great to have a beautiful smile but what is most important to me is the overall health of my patients. Welcome to Olde Naples Periodontics, the longest running periodontal practice in Naples, Florida. The foundation of our treatment philosophy is an earnest effort to preserve the natural teeth of our patients. Often it is possible to save teeth through a focus on the removal of bacteria and debris, and periodontal hygiene maintenance with our experienced hygiene team, before resorting to the extraction of teeth.

We have demonstrated a high burden of periodontal disease in the adult U.S. population, especially among adults 65 and older. Maintaining good periodontal health is important to the overall health and well-being of our aging population. Our findings support a need for public health programs to improve the oral health of adults.
Fifty percent of the population has a biological predisposition to periodontal disease. Even after a thorough periodontal cleaning, research has shown that bacteria can repopulate in as soon as three to six months in periodontally susceptible patients. That's why its imperative to have a routine periodontal maintenance schedule with your periodontal hygienist.
In Naples, Florida, Dr. Gay is owner and practitioner of the longest continuously running dental practice specializing in periodontics and dental implants. Dr. Gay has been board certified under the American Board of Periodontology since 2006. Periodontists and oral and maxillofacial surgeons are the only surgical specialists recognized by the American Dental Association (ADA).
Periodontal procedures are available to stop further dental problems and gum recession, and/or to improve the esthetics of your gum line. Exposed tooth roots can be the result of gum recession. Perhaps you wish to enhance your smile by covering one or more of these roots that make your teeth appear too long.

How does one grade a dentist? Usually pain is the criteria. There is a unique soothing manner to Dr. Denise Gay. No BS. a sense of professional caring is immediately felt. Kinda cool. This soft professionalism pervades the staff. Most are very reassuring. Dr. Gay recaps all with you at the end of your procedure. I wish she would offer a 25% discount to veterans. LOL I have been to many dentists over the years. Denise is the best.

If I could give Dr. Gay and her staff 10 stars I would. I just had my teeth cleaned for the first time in a while and I have been extremely self conscious of my mouth/smile after getting 9 teeth extracted at another facility. Dr. Gay and her staff went above and beyond what I expected. They were gentle and caring while cleaning and most important honest throughout the whole appointment. I will be back in 5 months for another cleaning and plan on returning for dental surgery to finish what the original Facility did not. THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH!

Exceptional Practice! I have gone to Denise and her team for about 8 years now -- and have always been overly pleased by their warm care, knowledge, and quick, yet thoughtful approach to dental care. Beyond my regular semiannual cleanings, the team has consulted me on other professional dental care. Always been a positive experience, with no reservations.

I love the office staff and Denise. They are very professional and hard working. I sometime needed emergency work and Denise and her staff worked me in. She care about her patients and goes out of her way. Every patient is different; I am very sensitive and she make my experience painless. if she can deal with me then everyone else is a breeze :
